"Excellent service, a personal touch, and a fantastic result.\n\nThe Venue has always felt to me like it's here in Sjöstan, unglamorous and without anything appealing. I've never been tempted to visit the salon, thinking it's just a local hairdresser without any vibe. Imagine how many years I could have been looking my best!\n\nIt all started when the younger member of the family needed to cut her ponytail. I've always had thick hair, but she has, if possible, even more, and it's everywhere and nowhere at once. The latest cut the stylist managed to cut the hair completely crooked and uneven, so it was time to fix it.\n\nI figured it would be simple and called The Venue. We got an appointment a few days later.\n\nThe place sits nicely right by the canal on two floors. Clean, bright, and large glass panes make the space look stylish in sunshine and a bit gloomy in the rain.\n\nHere begins the magical service. My three-year-old is treated like an important adult client and placed on a cushion in a hairdressing chair with a child-friendly cape around her. I see the stylist chat with her a little and then step away. She comes down with a plate of cookies and a glass of juice and places it by the chair. The daughter almost glows with well-being. Then the stylist starts cutting, and it isn't a quick process as is common with children's haircuts; she takes her time to secure with clips, spray with water, and cut so the hair becomes even and straight. It is a pleasure to watch, and the daughter falls asleep in the middle of it. She only does that if she feels safe and satisfied. She wakes up, eats some cookies, and is so proud. \nAfter that haircut she tells everyone she meets about how it was.\n\nI am completely swept away by all this and quickly book another appointment with the same girl, Maria, for a cut and color.\n\nA few days later I'm there and receive equally good service and care. It doesn't go quickly, so expect almost three hours of your day spent here, but the result is well worth it.\n\nIt's not cheap to get a child's haircut in Stockholm, but here you get value for your money. A haircut and color were standard included in the price.\n\nIn short: If you want to spoil your daughter with a really nice experience, start at The Venue on a Friday afternoon. Then take a few steps up the street and rent a good movie at Hemmakväll."

Was with Magnolia at the Venue in Sjöstan. For once, I was more than satisfied! She took her time and showed me how I could style my hair on my wedding day. As well as coming up with his own ideas around cutting and styling. I'll be back.
